Thank you Lady! That's freakin' AWESOME! I'm not sure how many times it would take for me to be able to drive past Muncho Lake before I could do it without stopping.

I do so envy you!

Don't ya just love those steel grated bridge decks.

[Windwalker]

Thank you Lady! That's freakin' AWESOME! I'm not sure how many times it would take for me to be able to drive past Muncho Lake before I could do it without stopping.

I do so envy you!

And, about every 3 seconds, or so, you'd be telling yourself to KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD... :lol:

Now, you need another one right alongside while that one is playing... NEW YORK CITY TRUCKIN'. Also, not the sort of road you want to be on if you're a little tired.

I see the water and think of fishing rods... See the mountains and think of a camera in my hands... See the LACK OF OTHER TRAFFIC and think of ENVY YOU!!! Thank you for the view.

[LadyNorthStar]

Yeah its pretty awesome, even WITH the lack of road maintenance in the winter.
Theres a lady on there that posts NY videos, I don't envy her at alllll.

You took the words right outta my mouth!

Actually snow covered is better than why they do in the states. Scrap it clean (hahaha) with the least bit of moisture we now have ice. I'll take snow covered. :wink:

Depends on the temp. Just 3 degrees below freezing, and it packs down and gets just as slick as ice. Snow is only better if it's fresh or cold. If you make a snowball, and it falls apart, it's better. If it packs nice and hard and round, and stays that way, be very careful. It won't forgive you.

Awesome video Lady! I always pray I will meet no one on the Teslin bridge, it's a bit narrow for my taste...but we do what we gotta do right?

Who sings the last tune on your vid? Like to get a copy of that one!

[wot i life]

Will watch tomorrow morning when I sober up

Wot is on the pish! :wink:

[Lord Charles Farquhart]

Very nice.
I must say, you`re roads are awfully wide!
Must be virtually impossible to crash over there eh?
Not like Sussex at all :lol:

[wildkat]

WIDE???? They're 18ft with no shoulders, but then our rigs are alot bigger than yours over there.

My truck has a 244" wheel base, the vehicle combination I pull has an overall length of 102 ft. I've taken it down some pretty narrow & winding roads, but then we don't have the sardine can space that you guys have either!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[LadyNorthStar]

Kat I don't mind the Teslin bridge, probaby cause I'm always doing the 50 km speed limit through Teslin.
I hate Big Creek and Little Ranch, oh and Mclintock, ugh! Cause I'm always doing 100+ and praying people stay out of my way! lol

I'm interviewing you next Kat so be ready!!!

PS: Did you get my text message?

[belpre122]

Tammy, I enjoyed the interview.

Hopefully Rebel Darlin will see this and take some of your advice for the ladies. Using her agitated rattlesnake personality as an example, it is no wonder that females from the 'outside' are treated poorly. :P

YOU'RE WHAT???? Interview.... <kat goes & hides> :D :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

No I didn't...my bag phone is just not equipped for text messages, soooo I have them ...blocked <covers head>

Are you working for Direct again...did I see you in Nelson on Thursday? I thought maybe I did...but maybe I was mistooken! :shock: :shock:

I know I don't like those bridges either, but Teslin bothers me cause it never fails I get some damned tourist wobbling all over the bridge with his RV... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :roll: :roll:

[cowdoc]

Wow that's great scenery. I run a refuge road but it's rough and I mainly watch for potholes.

Ouch!

The video was great! And I agree, attitude is everything. I've never had a problem with my co-workers or customers. It's all about being a professional.

Don't pay any attention to Belpre, he's just spittin' in the wind again. :wink:

[belpre122]

Tammy.......What type of places do you take your breaks at? They are used to the run-of-the-mill Pilots/T/A/Petro etc, down here. The variety (or lack thereof) would be interesting, I think? Are they mostly Mom-Pop operations? Or any at all?

We already know who would be at Jake's Corner. 8)

bel.. there's no such thing as that up here... and most of the places here only have a space to park a couple of trucks at most, so we don't SLEEP there, or I should say at least "I" don't. There are multitudes of "roadside pull-outs", a wide spot on the highway, that's where we sleep.

[LadyNorthStar]

Funny questions actually, I shot some of the truck stop we switch at today, and was laughing and saying how this was a canadian truck stop, room for 50 trucks and only 5 in the lot. lol
(The store and restaraunt are baorded up though, that doesn help!)
